He said Nowshera and Charsadda districts of the valley witnessed huge devastation due to from floods floods in the Kabul River in the past. He said he raised his voice on the matter several times in the The Nation, November 28, 2016 past but no previous government ever listened to him. He said river Kabul destroyed movable and unmovable properties in the valley several times but no government ever paid attention to the situation. He was addressing at Pirpiai, Nowshera. The CM said his political opponents were drawing wrong meaning of his discourse with the people. He stated that the prime minister should convene a meeting of the political leadership to convince them about his commitments with the province on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project and the present status of the multi-billion project. He said his opponents were trying to resell old slogans to the people but no one will pay heed to them. Khattak said the province would have three industrial estates having diversified industrial units and its own power generation stations. This would create jobs for the jobless and contribute to the overall economic development of the province. The chief minister said his government ensured transparent governance and prioritized education and health sectors development, upheld merit, discouraged corruption and inefficiency, favour and political meddling in the state-run institutions and also reformed police system that started giving results and the people were reaping the benefits of these reforms. The CM said previously the rulers used to use police and state machinery against political opponents for their own interest that polluted the entire system of governance. The chief minister said no country could develop if government institutions are politicised or no justice and equality is guaranteed to the common man. He added that in the past the nation was deluded with false claims of development in the presence of unjust system and disparity in the rights of the citizen. “We have an agenda for development, which will realise through a check on corruption and dishonesty and judicious utilisation of resources on public welfare,” he claimed. The poor governance in the past weakened the foundation of the country, Khattak lamented.

  • The Haunting Footprints of Drought, Hunger and Poor Governance: a Report on the Tharpakar Crisis
    The Haunting Footprints of Drought, Hunger and Poor Governance: A Report on the Tharpakar Crisis THE NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN MESSAGE OF THE CHAIRMAN Thar is a large track of desert land running along the whole of the eastern length of the Sind province. It consists of sand hills or bhiths and shallow salt lakelets (dhandis) fed by rain. The phenomenon of drought is recurring and Thar remains the worst region of famine. The name Thar comes from ‘thul’ which means sand ridges. It is also commonly known as ‘MarooThul’, which means the death area. The crisis at Thar was nomenclatured as a “Tragedy of Thar” by the DAWN newspaper in its editorial after my visit dated 12th March 2016. The conditions in Thar are a stark manifestation of state neglect, inaptitude, bureaucratic inertia and corruption. Now another problem is arising through radicalization and attempts of forced conversions. All this calls for immediate curative measures as suggested in the report. This greatest desert of Pakistan has the biggest deposits of coal and overwhelming non- muslim majority whimpering of inaction on the part of the state. State organizations like NDMA, PDMAs, metrological departments etc have remained callous so far which is unfortunate. The Metrological department could always forewarn through correct information about the expected drought to prepare people ahead. The government of Sindh in departments of Health, Education and local administration are to be made accountable. The agonies of the people were brought to the notice of the receptive Senator Taj Haider, the spokesman for the Sindh government on Thar.

    Country Advice Pakistan Pakistan – PAK35880 – Swat Valley – PML-N – Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Shariah- Mohammadi – Landowners – April 2009 Army Offensive – Internal relocation – Asylum seekers 23 December 2009 1 Please provide a concise history of recent events in the Swat Valley, including the ‘Talibanisation’ of the valley and the April 2009 offensive by the Pakistan army to retake the valley. 2 What is the law and order situation in the Swat Valley since the April 2009 Pakistan army offensive in the valley? What has become of the Taliban leadership and militants in the valley since the offensive? Do they still pose a threat to the peace and stability of the valley? Origins of the Tehreek Nifaz e Sharia Mohammadi in the Swat Valley The terms ‘Taliban’ and ‘Taliban in Pakistan’ (TIP) are often employed by the Pakistani and International media as shorthand for a number of militant Islamic groups espousing the introduction of Sharia law, the creation of an Islamic state or the pursuit of violent jihad. It has been reported that a number of such groups currently operate in the Malakand district of North West Frontier Province, which includes the Swat Valley. In the Swat region itself, the primary movement since the early 1990s to the present day has been the Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e- Shariah-Mohammadi (TNSM). The February 2009 IRIN article ‘Pakistan: Origins of the violence in Swat Valley’ provides useful and concise information on the Tehrik-e-Nifaz-e-Shariah-Mohammadi (TNSM). On the subject of its origins IRIN states “[i]n 1992, Sufi Mohammad Khan established the Tehrik- e-Nifaz-e-Shariah-Mohammadi (TNSM) in Swat, as a party seeking an Islamic order.
